Nice!

A comment on air traffic phraseology - can you update this so that the command is (for example):

"BAW123, cleared direct ADOPI."
with the response
"Cleared direct ADOPI, BAW123"

There is some discussion about the proper phraseology (and it probably varies) but that's my best guess for an ATC direction that gives a shortcut.

I think atc phraseology varies in a lot of countries! I've hear many different calls regarding this. I think in general, it's always good to tell someone is cleared to fly direct to a waypoint so I think that's the best way to implement this. I've also heard things like: "fly direct ADOPI or just Direct ADOPI"

My opinion is that this command should be added with the cleared in front of the command, which will make it clear for everybody to understand!

thanks for the cc by the way! Enjoy your day
